Well Seasoned Driftwood


June 23, 2009 I posted about a beach trip to my Brother's place outside Florence on the Oregon Coast where I met up with him, his wife and our mom who they had brought down. Later in the day my Mom and I went down to the beach - I wanted to find some driftwood for possible projects.  The driftwood is definitely ready by now for a transformation....A lamp for my Brother. I finally found a stone I like to go with the driftwood - it's a Whiskey River Flagstone. I don't make shades but he will get his pick of two different Elk shades I know about or a Salmon shade and he'll get his pick of Pull Chains too - if I go the Salmon shade route - I was thinking of  making a pull chain out of an old Salmon/Trout plug lure. From the the picture above you can get the gist of what the lamp will look like.... a little more than firewood I hope - it has a way to go still....
